Report Canvas Alignment is stuck in "Top" alignment

In the december 2022 Power BI Desktop you can no longer change the standard setting for canvas vertical alignment.

 

If you change the standard i options and settings, it just resest to "top" as soon as you close the window.

This is really frustrating

Hi @kristofferwest 

 

Have got feedback from product team. This behavior is expected. The setting in Options is the default for new files created in desktop. It does not reflect the setting in the currently opened report and not does it change it. To change the alignment for the open report, use canvas settings in the format pane.

Hi @kristofferwest 

 

Please close Power BI Desktop after you change the settings in Options. It will take effect at the next time you open Desktop.

 

Change page alignment to Align the page in the center of the wallpaper, then close this application

Restart this application, Vertical Alignment will change to Middle

Hi

 

Thanks for your feedback - but it makes no sence.

 

the toggle should really work on the current file as well 🙂
